THE HIRED ESCORT.
How Unprotected Ladies Are Chapsroned
In the Eastern CisIes.

philadelphia Press.l
It Is a common practice in New Y ork
City for ladies to hire male escorts 10
places Of evening entertainment, the en-
gagement usually being made with some
Of the messenger companies, which keep a
corps ofyouths for that purpose. In Phila-
delphia young man has branched out on
his individual account. He tells the Pres
business isn't good as it might be, but it is
improving. He keeps an advertisement in
the paper, and Us of his mode of pro-
cedure:
.If they want me they write me to call.
go in the afternoon, show my references,
which are good, and make arrangements
as 70 whether they want a carriage or not,
for instance, and whether i shall wear
evening dress, in which case /
charge one dollar extra. Then
in the evening l appear, send up
my card, and no one knows, i think. that /
am not W asting my own money in taking
my affianced, my mother, my wife, as the
case may be, to the play, and, by Jove, 1
don't myself sometimes" "You mean,
then" Nothing, nothing" said the
young man, giving slight curl to his left
whiskerlet- ''Still, you'd be surprised,
sir, 10 know how much even a hired escort
Is to some women. 'Pon my word they
hang on my arm-I don't mean all of them
when we cross the cutters and they
chstter-I really believe they're good
deal more interested in keeping up the

quite certain that the Lancaster woman
she ordered me dress snit, by the way
has formed her idea Of city society man
completely from nv makeup. But you
mustn't say any thing about that 1t
would injure the business" ''You
spoke OF staying through some
performances and merely taking
to and calling for others. Can you make
two engag ements in nightl'' "'Places of
amusement my advertisement reads"
answered the hired escort. FIhere are
great many amusements besile the the
ater-lectures, concerts and tableaux.
Most OF these are out an hour before the
tEcaters close. In Boston, whore there
are so many old maids, you know, and yet
such n large amusement-loving pOpula-
ton, l almost always had two engage
ments a night" 'You have lately come
from thereF' The hired escort sighed.
81 have" he said. Would that l could
have stayed there" "Ahlr ''Yes, / took
a young lady three times to the museum.
The third time-well, her father was an
invalid. am very glad he was. If he
possessed his full viSor l do not think
weuld have been able TO do what did

A Love story which Ended In the Queer
Name OF the First-Born Son.

Name OF the Eirst-Born Son.
philadelphia Press.l
knew man by the name Of Rose once
who was Of a romantic disposition, and
when girl baby was born to him he
named her Wilde. II sounded very poet
cal to write it Wilde Rose, but when she
grew up and married a man by the name
of Bull, as size did, it wasn't half so pref
ty. But they called her Rose Bull then,
and she now signs her name in that way
The clerk of the Supreme Court of the
District OF Columbia is named Return
Jonathan Mcgs. His fathers and his
grandfather's were the same, and the first
Of the lire, nearly a hundred years ago,
vas called Jonathan Meigs He had Q
sweetheart who Tilted him, but afterward
was sorry for it, and sent him a
little piece of paper on which was written
simply this and nothing more: Return,
Jonathan" 1t was the most welcome and
gratifying message he ever received, and
1T was answered in person. The couple
were soon married, and when their first
baby was born they celebrated the event
by calling him Return Jonathan" The
name has been handed down in the family
for four generations TO the first-born son.
and it now appears twice in the Washing
ton directory.
The name of a member OF Congress
from Michigan is Julius Cesar Burroughs.
